Velvet top

Thank you all for your input. I actually ordered the Boden one but it's a very tight fit and I really fancied a looser (more relaxed!!) fit. I can usually wear an 18 or 20 in Bodenham but even the 22 was very tight.

I am a huge devotee of Kettlewell but didn't find anything I liked in velvet.

I will investigate all the other suggestions, thank you.

Seasalt have some lovely tunic/ short dresses in velvet.

A White Stuff Outlet we were in today had lovely colours in not too clingy velvet. Good prices, too.

Edinburgh Woollen Mill have a red top.

No idea why typeface went all skew-wiff above.

I was in M&S this afternoon and they had some nice slinky velvet tops.

What would you pair a velvet top with?

I have some slim-leg (the only slim bit) velvet trousers. If I wore a lovely velvet top with them would I look like a velvet sofa?
Slinky black trousers?
and a top in a different fabric to go with the velvet trousers?

www.poetryfashion.co.uk/ a bit of a blow out but lovely!

They’re all lovely- I want them all( except the trousers).

Loads to look at, thank you lovely people.

Brigidsdaughter, love these clothes!

How about this one from Whitestuff kitty ? It comes in a beautiful raspberry, a darker plum and a forest green too. Soft velvet front and a lovely soft cotton jersey back . Would look fab with black trousers .

I’ve found this code for 15% off but haven’t tried it . WSB15

Try Witt. I like their clothes - good quality and mid peice

Gilly1952 It is funny about wearing black. I used to love it but having hated it all my life I now love purple!!

PureCollection.com do some nice ones.

Just ordered the White Stuff top. The code worked fine. I'll let you know what it's like. Thanks gillybob
